Subsidies are going up from £58,000 to £70,000 for RSLs in city and urban areas and rising from £46,000 to £57,000 for council homes, following recommendations from an expert group, Housing Minister Margaret Burgess announced today.
Recommendations on increasing subsidy levels made by the group, which included housing associations and council representatives, have been agreed in full and will now be implemented for all new grant applications.
